What to Do After Encountering Dangerous Conditions on Property

Ensure Immediate Safety: The first priority is always your safety. Move to a safe location to avoid further harm. If you are injured, seek medical attention immediately. Prompt medical care not only ensures your health but also documents your injuries, which is essential for any legal claims.

Document the Hazard: If you are able, take photographs or videos of the dangerous conditions that caused your injury. This evidence can be crucial in proving the property owner's negligence. Note the date and time of the incident, as well as any other relevant details such as weather conditions.

Report the Incident: Inform the property owner, manager, or responsible party about the incident. Ensure that they acknowledge the hazardous condition and your injury. Request that an incident report be filed, and obtain a copy for your records.

Collect Witness Information: If there were any witnesses to your accident, gather their contact information and statements. Witnesses can provide valuable testimony that supports your claim.

Keep Records: Maintain detailed records of all medical treatments, expenses, and any communications related to your injury. This includes receipts, medical reports, and any correspondence with the property owner or their insurance company.

Consult with a Lawyer: Before discussing your case with insurance adjusters or accepting any settlement offers, consult with an experienced lawyer at Western Slope Law. We can help you understand your rights and build a strong case to ensure you receive fair compensation.
